Abstract

Abstract:We can be ashamed and we can feel shame for someone who lacks shame. The essay argues that Peter Hujar's photography explores what it means to feel a truly shameless shamelessness. Each of Hujar's three major bodies of work—his portraits, nudes, and animal pictures—seeks in different ways to overcome what might be otherwise embarrassing about their respective genres: a portrait that is too candid, a nude that verges on naked, and, more subtly, animals that resist anthropomorphism, either as pets or as human doppelgängers. I contend that Hujar's unflinching and candid portrayals make the viewer acutely aware of his or her impulse to be or not to be embarrassed for themselves and/or for the artist's sitters. Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick's and Silvan Tomkins's idea that shame is something through which identity is constituted provides the essay's theoretical foundation.

Peter Hujar:无耻无耻

摘要:我们可以感到羞耻，我们可以为那些缺乏羞耻感的人感到羞耻。这篇文章认为，彼得·胡笳尔的摄影探索了真正无耻的无耻意味着什么。胡笳尔的三个主要作品——肖像、裸体和动物照片——都以不同的方式寻求克服各自类型的尴尬:过于坦率的肖像，接近裸体的裸体，更微妙的是，抵制拟人化的动物，无论是作为宠物还是作为人类doppelgängers。我认为胡笳尔的毫不退缩和坦率的描绘使观众敏锐地意识到他或她的冲动是或不为自己和/或艺术家的模特感到尴尬。伊芙·科索夫斯基·塞奇威克和西尔万·汤姆金斯认为羞耻感是构成身份的东西，这一观点为本文提供了理论基础。

期刊介绍： Film Criticism is a peer-reviewed, online publication whose aim is to bring together scholarship in the field of cinema and media studies in order to present the finest work in this area, foregrounding textual criticism as a primary value. Our readership is academic, although we strive to publish material that is both accessible to undergraduates and engaging to established scholars. With over 40 years of continuous publication, Film Criticism is the third oldest academic film journal in the United States. We have published work by such international scholars as Dudley Andrew, David Bordwell, David Cook, Andrew Horton, Ann Kaplan, Marcia Landy, Peter Lehman, Janet Staiger, and Robin Wood. Equally important, FC continues to present work from emerging generations of film and media scholars representing multiple critical, cultural and theoretical perspectives. Film Criticism is an open access academic journal that allows readers to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, and link to the full texts of articles, or use them for any other lawful purpose except where otherwise noted.
